Can you minichat? It's not really a thing about learning both it's about realism. Neither a pistol or a throwing knife could do much damage to a ship, but they would on land or on board a ship battle. To board a ship, ram into it _{(ramming is a melee sea tactic, but you get what I mean)} so you could use both a throwing knife and pistol equally on land.

Right, go start now xD

You headed to the port together and two ships were tied to the deck, the Ghost and Wind's Pleasure were written in golden letters on the side. There were a few sailors the school had given you to help start you off. The day was windy away from London towards the sea and the waves were gentle. Your sails flapped. Behind you, there were lots of streets with markets, a fountain in the middle. A new mayor had been appointed recently and negotiations with Amsterdam were happening regularly, there seemed to be a planned trade route with them. Neither of you were sure for what, but from what Alice had been taught, today was a good day to sail. Further from the bay, you could already see some small ships. Some were anchored in the bay and others were sailing around.

"Well, Alice." Arthur lifted his head proudly and gestured at the ships. "Adventure starts today! What would you like to do first?" Looking around, he noted that they could probably get some supplies before leaving.

Edit: can't minichat, don't have computer. I'm at the robotics competition where everyone is setting up stuff.

I fixed it I think, I'm not sure if I messed up anything else

If you don't want to be Russian, you don't have to. It's because a player said their land was Russia, so we made it St Petersburg. If you still want to be Russian, that's fine, but understand you can be any country.

Oh ok, I changed it again, I'm so sorry for the trouble I'm causing.

There isn't a chance you're just looking at the two capitals? ^^

You're absolutely fine, I promised I'd help out. You definitely aren't the worst at making transitions and you're definitely being very sweet about it, if anything I'm being rude.

Some ideas of your homeland are:
Italy
Spain
Portugal
Japan
etc, take any country you want
_{I don't recommend the ones near the pirate areas, though.}

Spain sounds good to me
